Here are three tips for picking a nice potted tree at a nursery!
1. Good structure: if you're choosing a large-maturing tree, look for one with a strong central leader and a lack of competing leaders. A high-quality tree should require minimal structural pruning shortly after planting because it has been adequately trained at the nursery. Avoid co-dominant trees or ones with very tight branch crotches, if possible.
2. Good roots: inspect the tree's root ball if possible. Take it out of the pot and see how girdled or not its roots may be. Ideally, you don't want to choose one whose roots are severely circled and whose will be hard to loosen at the time of planting.
3. Root / trunk flare towards the top of the pot: make sure the tree hasn't been buried too deep in the pot! This can cause issues for the tree after it has been planted.
Check out Tree Authority in Perkasie, PA, for high-quality potted trees and shrubs. I've personally planted probably close to 1000 plants from here and have always been happy with their pricing, quality, and performance!
